I had one more box I had bought so thought I would make it up too. I used another Mag stamp and the same paper pad as on the other two. I love the old fashioned papers in this pad. I inked the edges and added a little glitter and flowers and the same as the other two. I did have a lot of fun making these and am sitting here wishing I would have bought a few more. lol Not sure what I will do with so many but know someone will end up with them in a few weeks. lol

I had so much fun making the last jewelry box that I decided to make another. I also have another special loved one I hope will like this when they receive it! I still have one plain one and not sure if I will get it made up for Christmas or not. Might wait and see how these ones are received before I proceed on, but who knows.....might have it done tonight. lol

I saw these small wooden jewelry boxes in the unfinished wood section at Hobby Lobby and decided to try to alter it for a Christmas gift. I have a certain someone in mind for it but not sure she will like it (but sure am hoping she will)! lol I first stained it and then started covering parts. I then spent several hours looking for a sketch to make an easel card for the top. I added a magnet to keep it shut when lying flat so won't just flop around when they open the lid. She loves flowers and bling so added plenty! I also inked all the edges for a more antique look. I added a little heart charm to finish it off. I did have fun working on this and hope to make a few more if this one goes over well. I am entering in the following challenges:
